STEndpoint (geometry Data Type)

[!INCLUDE SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance]

Returns the end point of a geometry instance.

Syntax

  
.STEndPoint ( )  

Return Types

[!INCLUDEssNoVersion] return type: geometry

CLR return type: SqlGeometry

Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) type: Point

Remarks

STEndPoint() is the equivalent of STPointN (x.NumPoints()).

This method returns null if called on an empty geometry instance.

Examples

The following example creates a LineString instance with STGeomFromText() and uses STEndpoint() to retrieve the end point of the LineString.

DECLARE @g geometry;  
SET @g = geometry::STGeomFromText('LINESTRING(0 0, 2 2, 1 0)', 0);  
SELECT @g.STEndPoint().ToString();
